Great Blue Heron with Crayfish

Great Blue Heron with Crayfish



This morning I saw a Great Blue by the shore of the pond at Audubon Park.

I thought it was in pretty good light for a photo, so I decided to take a photo.

As I knelt down the heron struck the water and came up with a crayfish.

He didn’t take long to swallow it; it was gone in seconds.
